Winery Happenings

The bottling season is upon us with July activities in both California and Texas.

  • July 5th through 7th - John and Bryan are in California bottling our reds:  Cabernet Sauvignon, both Zinfandels, and Pinot Noir.
  • July 19th (Tuesday) and 20th (Wednesday) - all hands on deck for 2 full days of bottling (approximately 1700 cases of both reds and whites).  Due to the extreme heat and strenuous activity we will be having shorter work shifts.  Note: all volunteer positions are outside, require standing, and lifting cases of wine that weigh up to 40 or 50 pounds. There is no parking at 18B where we are bottling. Below is a link to a video to get an idea of some of the volunteer stations needed during bottling.
